1IR. EDITOR: Discussion in both public
and private circles during the past week
has been about equally diyided between the
sensational incidents attending the last
days of the doomed anarchists at Chicago,
and the result of Tuesdays election.
If any one had inferred from the fact
that no elections are held at the National
Capital, that the residents of the District
of Columbia were wanting in interest in .he
result of State elections, they would have
had their minds disabused of the erroneous
idea, had they witnessed the excited crowds
that assembled about the various newspaper
and telegraph offices upon Tuesday even
ing, anxiously watching the bulletins as
they were posted. The result in New York
is considered by the Democrats as favor
able omen upon which to base their predic-
tions for the Presidential contest, and the
friends of the administration have in their
own minds re-nominated and reelected
President Cleveland for a second term.
Every body at the White House, from the
President down to the humbliest employee,
hass worn smile of satisfaction since the
result was announced. The President was
upon election day, and he did not retire for
the night until he had received the assurance
that New York had voted in accordance
with his wishes The Republicans derive

Republican Representative in Congress
from Rhode Island, as this gives them a
mojority of the States in the House, which
will be of vital Importance in case of no
popular election of Prsident next year.
Horseback riding is becoming "quite the
thing" in society circles here. A new three
story brick building has recently been CON
structed upon P street, at a cost of S75, 900,
which is to be known as the Washington
Riding Academy. The school will be open
during the present month, and an annual
subscription of 800 is asked of each men,
Der which will entite the member TO the

it is reserved for special purposes. The

1t has long been an open secret, that al
intense hostile feeling has existed between
the Secretary of the Interior and Mr.. Sparks
the Commissioner of land Office, growing
out of the differences in opinion entertained
by each ofithe respective officers with refer
ence to the constructed of the laws relating
to land grants. Mr.. Lamar has written {

AS THE coNvENING OF CONGRESS DRAWS
near the matter OF reducing the surplus be-
comes the all-absorbing topic in political
and financial quarters. Under existing
laws millions of dollars are annually ac-
cumulating in the treasury vaults, that
should be In circulation, it is natural to
suppose, in consideration of this fact, that
the attention of our next Congress will be
specially directed to the proper adjustment
of the present unwise, heavy and oneroas
tariff laws so excessively burdensome to the
common people. Reduce the surplus; the
Democratic party has promised this, ant
they must fulfill their promise.

The hanging Of the anarchists in Chicago
occasioned much excitement and feelings
of apprehension here in Philadelphia.
Everybody was on tiptoe, expecting to hear
of more bombs being thrown and general
rapine committed in Chicago by the iabble
as they had boasted of doing so often. But
this happily did not occur, and as a conse-
quence the law-abiding people breathed
easier. Philadelphia too, has hot-bed of
anarchists but they are not so bold ard
fearless as their Chicago brethren are.
They have been impressed and warned of
the strength and security afforded by the
law and the power that backs up this law

made but they are so toned as to be within

ertheless remains that the doctrine they
advocate SO fearlessly partakes of the ma
